SYLVANIA - Headlight Restoration Kit - 3 Easy Steps to Restore Sun Damaged Headlights with Exclusive UV Block Clear Coat, Light Output and Beam Pattern Restored, Long Lasting Protection

I was amazed by how well this headlight restore kit worked! My old, faded headlights now look brand new. The directions were clear and easy to follow, making the process simple. It did take a little effort, but the results were absolutely worth it. The kit included everything needed, and the improvement in visibility at night is noticeable. If you’re looking to restore your headlights without spending a fortune, this is the perfect solution.

From yellow and foggy to perfect clarity. Couldn’t be happier with the final result. Definitely read the directions, have a hose nearby, and a roll of shop towels. Set a timer for each step. The first three will not make the lights better; those are for removing the lens coatings and roughing up the plastic for the last amazing step. Putting on the new final coating was incredible, the lights look like brand new. A+ instructions, product quality, and the final results.

The headlight restoration kit worked fairly well, but not perfectly. My left headlight was probably too cloudy, so it didn’t improve as much as I hoped—it’s still hazy.Here’s what I experienced:The process: It was physically challenging, but I managed to get through it.Instructions: I was nervous about making a mistake, but the box instructions and a YouTube video helped a lot.Tools: I used only what came in the kit, but I think a drill with special sanding attachments might have given better results.By the end, I was really tired and not entirely happy with the outcome. Maybe men would have an easier time getting better results with the sandpaper provided. I might give it another try in the future.

This headlight restoration kit is priced right, and it just WORKS! Just buy it! I have a 2002 Tundra. The headlight lenses had become completely opaque, having over twenty years of accumulated damage resulting from UV exposure. I used the Sylvania kit, applying the treatment in accordance with the instructions. At first, I wondered if the amount of sandpaper included with the kit was enough, but it was. Be sure to mask the area around your headlights so that you don't scuff your paint or trim with the sandpaper. It took me about 45 or 50 minutes to do, and it's very easy. The kit came with everything I needed to clean and treat my headlights. The results were AWESOME! The final task is to apply a UV protective coating. My headlight lenses look absolutely brand new, and I can see so much better now when driving at night! It's been one year since I applied this treatment, and they're still perfectly clear! Hopefully, they'll continue to look great for a long time. But eventually, they will likely start to fade again, there's no avoiding that, especially for a vehicle that spends all of it's time outside in the elements. When that happens, it will be a much easier job, because I won't wait to let them get as bad as they were when I applied this treatment. But when it happens, I will definitely buy this kit again!

Works really well. Have restored headlights to nearly new looking. Can’t comment on durability as I have only just used it.

This was recommended from Project Farm and the review did not disappoint. It was easy to use and the result was a finish that looked like new.

Su aplicación fue sencilla y con buenos resultados a un buen precio.

I was initially skeptical of how well this kit would work (I mean, it was only $20!) and I wasn’t sure if the foggy-ness on my headlights was inside the lens or on the outside.I read positive reviews on Amazon and looked at the customer’s images before I purchased the kit, but I’m always still slightly skeptical until I see it for myself, or personally know someone who has tried a product from online. But after seeing it for myself, I am now a believer!I buffed the outside of my headlights. You do not buff the inside, if anyone is curious. I can’t imagine buffing the outside would help if you had condensation build-up on the inside (although I’m sure you could apply to the inside of a clear lense?...just make sure you’re not buffing the tint or colored screen of a light. However, I’m sure the product wouldn’t advertise/recommend using on the interior of the lense due to possible damage it could cause). Most cloudy headlights seem to have sun/weather damage, though. This product will most certainly work great on that kind of wear and tear!For anyone saying toothpaste does the same thing, that is not correct. I’ve tried toothpaste. It helps but it doesn’t deliver the same results as this. This product has a pumice similar to the texture of toothpaste (but thicker and slightly grittier). But in addition to that, it provides lightly abrasive sandpaper, a stain remover, and a clear coat. So overall, it’s much more adept to ensuring as clean of a result as possible. It puts the toothpaste method to shame.I have not actually tried this product before, so I honestly have no idea how the durability/lifespan will be. However, if I’m going off how well this product worked, I would hope it holds up for a decent amount of time (months) before requiring another attempt. So I rated that aspect 5 stars until something proves otherwise, and I will update if that changes.The instruction manual was well-written and easy to read, as well as being intuitive and preempting you to get your other supplies ready and pre-reading the instructions before starting the project. It was written in perfect, fluent English; it was not overly verbose so the directions were easy to follow; and it was three simple steps on three small pages so it didn’t take a lot of time to read through the instructions.Things you will need in addition to the kit:- Water source (I used a hose, but you could use a large pitcher of water. You just need to be able to keep your sandpaper and lights consistently wet while sanding, and be able to rinse the lenses when the directions call for it).- Masking tape is optional though I’d recommend it. (The kit says the products will not strip the clear coat or ruin your paint job, but it suggests taping off your lights out of precaution. As long as the paint on someone’s car isn’t stripped of the clear coat or rusting/chipping before taping, then I’d definitely suggest taping off the lights with masking tape.)- Extra non-latex glove (if you want to wear one on both hands — because the box only includes one glove... I didn’t want anything on my hands, especially the chemicals, so I wore gloves the whole time).- Have a garbage can, nearby, for waste- Extra paper towels and/or a shammy for drying (I would have used a car shammy, but I had some soft, blue car-paper towels and those worked well.)The kit includes:-A spray that strips stains off the lenses- 3 soft paper towels that are used for drying, for rubbing pumice, and for applying the clear coat- 3 different sandpaper strips that you split in half and use one-half on each light (400 grit, 1000 grit, and 2000 grit— you work your way up from coarsest to smoothest grit).- Gritty pumice to polish the lenses after wet-sanding- And a UV Protectant Clear Coat to use at the last step (this step is essential because the lights dramatically shine and are exceptionally clear after applying this clear coat.)- I also kept my phone nearby so I could time my sanding/buffing. It recommends 5 minutes for each step, per light.Here’s what you need to know:- This particular kit is only good for 2 lights. My headlights were the main problem, but now that I see how well this works, I’ll probably do this to my taillights as well.- You need to set aside at least 1 hour for this project. Even 2 hours would be ideal but more than that isn’t needed. And you need to be willing to put some elbow grease into it with all of the sanding. (I’m sure you could use a small sanding buffer too...but people tend to buff too hard with a buffer if they’re not familiar with using one, so I wouldn’t recommend it to everyone. The product does not suggest to use one, but if you’re familiar with a buffer and have one on-hand, I could see how it could expedite the process. Just make sure to keep your headlights and the sandpaper wet while sanding.)- You are not to touch the headlights for at least one hour after applying the clear coat- You are advised not to drive the car or leave it in rainy conditions for 4-6 hours after applying the clear coat until the coating cures. (So set aside time to do this when you don’t have to drive somewhere; and make sure to do it on a sunny and/or dry cloudy day, although avoid direct sunlight and freezing cold temperatures).Seriously though, for $20, it makes it look like you basically have a brand new pair of lights! It is *so* worth the purchase. I’d highly recommend it, and whenever it wears off, I will certainly be purchasing another kit and doing this again.

Clean like new and protected headlights from uv
